Month: June 2008

Tim’s in Singapore and Hong Kong this week. We miss you! So this weekend Henry and I tried to stay busy instead of moping – we had a picnic in the park, played with cousin Jo (sadly, I took no pictures), and watched the crowds head to Gasworks and Fremont to watch the Solstice Parade (which we skipped). Also pictured – while I unloaded groceries today, Henry snuck back into the car and took the wheel. Is he saying "cheers"? Don’t drink and drive, Henry!

Because I have so much spare time in my life these days I thought I’d document* the dimensions for a set of washers, the outdoor game I learned at Man Camp a few years back and have since become addicted to. Not pictured here, but the game requires two boxes and 6 1" washers. Game rules vary, but you can get a full description of the game by doing a simple Web search. With the temperature in Seattle now above freezing, I hope to get a few games in this weekend.

*It’s well known that my sense of perspective has always been a little askew.

By the time I called her 2 minutes later, he had taken 14 steps. I raced home, and we took the pictures below. As of 7:54 pm, crawling is still his preferred mode of transportation, but he’s well on his way to operating on a whole new plane. Congratulations, Henry!

Kristine had another ultrasound today to chart Junior’s progress. All systems go. Junior’s heartbeat is 150 beats per second, which is almost as fast as Henry’s currently. But it’s not a competition. Slightly revised due date: December 11, 2008.
